Continuous Probability Distributions

Probability distributions are of two types, which are continuous probability distributions and discrete probability distributions. A continuous probability distribution contains an infinite number of values. For example, if time is infinite: you could count from 0 to a trillion seconds, billion seconds, so on indefinitely. A discrete probability distribution consists of only a countable set of possible values.

Normal Distribution

Suppose we had to design a bathroom weighing scale, how would we decide what should be the range of the weighing machine? Would we take the highest recorded human weight in history and use that as the upper limit for our weighing scale? This may not be a great idea as the sensitivity of the scale would get reduced if the range is too large. At the same time, if we keep the upper limit too low, it may not be usable for a large percentage of the population!

One operation of a mill is to cut pieces of steel into parts that are used in the frame for front seats in an automobile. The steel is cut with a diamond saw, and the resulting parts must be cut to be within 0.005 inch of the length specified by the automobile company. The measurement reported from a sample of 100 steel parts (stored in “Assignment 2 – Steel.xlsx” ) is the difference, in inches, between the actual length of the steel part, as measured by a laser measurement device, and the specified length of the steel part. For example, the first observation, -0.002, represents a steel part that is 0.002 inch shorter than the specified length. -0.0042 0.0057 0.0031 -0.0085 -0.0087 0.0083 0.0035 -0.0070 0.0040 0.0080 0.0094 -0.0036 -0.0067 0.0052 0.0100 -0.0010 0.0077 0.0010 -0.0060 -0.0025 -0.0022 -0.0097 0.0047 0.0060 0.0006 -0.0044 0.0015 0.0089 -0.0039 -0.0064 -0.0046 -0.0096 0.0021 -0.0071 -0.0020 0.0009 -0.0028 -0.0060 0.0001 -0.0057 -0.0062 0.0054 0.0061 0.0090 0.0004 0.0051…
A blood pressure measurement consists of two numbers: the systolic pressure, which is the maximum pressure taken when the heart is contracting, and the diastolic pressure, which is the minimum pressure taken at the beginning of the heartbeat. Blood pressures were measured, in millimeters of mercury (mmHg), for a sample of 10 adults. The following table presents the results. ---Predict the diastolic pressure for a patient whose systolic pressure is 145 millimeters. Round the answer to one decimal place.
Two types of medical devices used for knee replacement are being studied to see if the type of knee replacement used affects the rate of infection for a specific bacterial infection. The infection rate for a specific bacterial infection after surgery for device A is 0.0043. The rate for the same bacterial infection is 0.0121 for device B. How does the risk of developing the bacterial infection in individuals using device B compare to the risk of developing the bacterial infection in individuals using device A? Individuals using device A are 2.814 times more likely to develop the bacterial infection of interest than individuals using device B. Individuals using device B are 2.814 times more likely to develop the bacterial infection of interest than individuals using device A. Individuals using device A are 1.35 times more likely to develop the bacterial infection of interest than individuals using device B. Individual using device B are 1.35 times…

Suppose, a small town has 15000 people. Among the inhabitants, a pair is recently affected by a contagious disease. An affected pair can not transmit the disease until the pair is suffering for two days. After two days of sufferings, the pair can transmit the disease to another pair in each subsequent day. So, what percentage of the population will be affected after 22 days? Consider counting the number of affected people from day 1. Explain each step thoroughly, as your grade in this question will largely depend on the details of your explanation.
On the market, I sold 12 bushels of corn and bought 5 bushels of wheat, and in net I earned $1,510.00 dollars. At the same moment, someone else sold 11 bushels of corn and sold 15 bushels of wheat and earned $12,155.00 dollars.
